The Role of Epicardial and Visceral Fat in Severe Respiratory Infections: Associations With Adverse Outcomes

open access: yesClinical Obesity, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Excess adipose tissue has been extensively studied due to its role in the development of chronic diseases and inflammatory conditions. Obesity and visceral adipose tissue (VAT, fat stored within the abdominal cavity and around organs) are associated with increased susceptibility to respiratory infections and chronic low‐grade systemic ...

Scientists in power plays: How substantive were scientists' narratives during the COVID‐19 pandemic?

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract Scientists who provide expert advice must engage with policy processes. Little is known about whether and how scientists deal with the political dynamics of policy processes that are inherent to policymaking. We study this question by building on the policy dimension concept within the Narrative Policy Framework.

Powerful representation of the poor? German welfare associations' narrative advocacy during COVID‐19

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 54, Issue 3, August 2026.
Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic sparked unprecedented experimentation in the German social assistance system, leading to changes previously considered impracticable by policymakers. This included a sanctions moratorium, easier access to benefits, and temporary cash transfers, all of which were advocated by welfare associations—key organized interests ...

Synthetic Ligands of Myeloid C‐Type Lectin Receptors

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Binding of ligands to C‐type lectin receptors (CLRs) on myeloid cells can lead to an array of cellular responses. Exploitation of these receptors for therapeutic purposes requires high‐affinity ligands. This review surveys the diversity of synthetic ligands of myeloid CLRs in the context of binding, signaling, and downstream effects, as well as ...

“Intrapericardial Approach” for Venous Outflow Reconstruction in Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome: Surgical Techniques and LongTerm Outcomes

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1356-1364, July 2026.
Unlike deceased‐donor liver transplantation, living‐donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome (BCS) presents distinctive challenges in hepatic venous (HV)‐outflow reconstruction because diseased HV–inferior vena cava (IVC) cannot be entirely replaced with healthy donor vessels.

Surface‐Engineered Filters for Wettability‐Driven Collection of Airborne Fungal Spores

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2026.
Plasma‐polymerized coatings are used to tune air filter wettability for selective airborne fungal spore capture. Hydrophobic PFO surfaces retain filamentous fungal spores, while hydrophilic POX surfaces preferentially capture Rhodotorula glutinis. The findings reveal that surface chemistry dominates over coating thickness and filter geometry in driving
